Garlic Mashed Potatoes
Method
Preparing the Chicken
- 1
Marinate the Chicken
In a bowl, mix the olive oil, chopped rosemary, chopped thyme, minced garlic, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Rub this mixture all over the chicken, making sure to get under the skin. Place the chicken in a dish, cover, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or overnight for best results.

Roast the Chicken
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Remove the chicken from the marinade and place it in a roasting pan. Roast for 1 hour and 15 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Baste the chicken with its juices halfway through cooking.
